The way I read the release support document, I don't think the feature
cut-off for the 0.x branch happens when we confirm a release date for 1.0,
I think it occurs once we actually release 1.0.  Maybe the cut-off can
happen once we declare the first 1.0 release candidate.  I'm sure we will
spend significant time doing testing and bug fixes on 1.0 release
candidates.  If I recall, we spent 2 weeks on 0.6.1 release candidates.
